TESTING SEEDS.
4 Precaution That Should Be Neglected
by No Farmer.

a Precaution That Should Be Neglected
by No Farmer.
The season passes nwayso rapidly that
seed-tme often comes before the farmer
has thought to test the quality of the
different seeds he intends ito plant. 1t
is well to begin. this work;in season;
therefore as soon as the decision is made
as to what crops are to be grown, if
the seed is not already on hand. it
should be. at once purchased, and as
soon. as purchased it should be tested;
to do this, procure a box or large flow
er-pot, and plant twenty-five seeds of
each variety in it, and place it in warm
room and keep the earth moist. When
the plants come up count them and thus
ascertain what proportion, if any, are
good. In this way the farmer can not
only ascertain whether the seed is worth
planting, but he can also ascertain how
thick it should be planted; if twenty
five per cent. fail to grow, he will plant
more than if only five per cent fail. If
more than fifty per cent. fail to grow,
then the seed should be discarded, and
better bought if possible. If farmers
| would adopt this plan it would prevent
the loss OF crop by bad seed, and 1t
would also enable them to decide. when
seed does not terminate, whether it
| is because Of bad seed bad
weather, or bad planting. When our
plants do not come up at the proper time,
| we are very apt to charge it to bad seed,
when, perhaps, the seed was good, anf
the failure was caused + bad planting
| together with bad season; but as we
| do not suspect the cause we keep
| planting the same way, and suppose we
get bad seed every season that the
| weather is such as to be unfavorable to
our method of planting; but if we know
that our seec is good, and it fails to
grow, we shall begin to investigate, and
| perhaps discover that we plant our seed
too deep to grow in cold, wet season
In wet season no doubt much seed i:
lost by too deep planting, and yet the
farmer honestly thinks it is because O
